London tea specialists' subscription service means we can't wait for the postie to come oolong...

Having sourced over 100 flavours since launching their subscription service in 2014, the London Tea Club — whose loose-leaf teas help promote wellness and inspiration — delights a number of enthusiasts each month with a fastidiously-curated selection of handpicked premium brews.

£10 each month (£12 international) will see you creating a personalised profile, which founder Cecelia Lau and her team use to help select three different teas to send out to n00bs and aficionados alike. The packaging is simple, beautifully designed, the teas presented in test tube vials (enough to make 3-4 cups) and accompanied by disposable bags, brewing instructions and details of its origins.

Partnering the subscription service is LTC’s online store, where premium flavours such as Iron Goddess of Mercy (oolong), Crème Earl Grey, and (my personal fave) Vanilla Almond herbal tea are available from £20 for 100g. Every season, every taste, every whim covered — let’s get the par-tea started.
